screws.

3. Remove slide from liner.

Pinion Cross Bar

Pinion cross bars keep the drawer from twisting
while the drawer is being opened or closed. On
24 and 26 cu. ft. models, the pinion gears holding
the pinion bar are connected to the lower drawer
slides. The 18 cu. ft. models do not use a pinion
cross bar.
Pinion Cross Bar Removal
1. Remove the drawer front (see Drawer Front
Removal in the Freezer Drawer section in
this service guide).
2. Leave the inner rails of the lower slides
extended.
3. Gently pry one of the pinion gears away from
the inner rail of the slide.
4. Once the pinion bar is removed from one side,
slide the bar to the opposide side to remove
the bar from the other pinion gear.

Pinion Gears

Pinion gears connect to the inner rail of the
freezer slide. The gears hold the pinion bar in
place and move back and forth over the bottom
of the slide holders.
Pinion Gear Removal
1. Follow Pinion Cross Bar Removal steps
under Pinion Cross Bar in this section of the
service guide.
